My bad. It's in Rosslyn, not near the courthouse. All this time, I thought it was near the courthouse.
UPDATED: President Trump Visiting His Election HQ in Rosslyn
ARLnow.com Today at 11:50am
(Updated at 12:25 p.m.) President Donald Trump is visiting Arlington on Election Day.
The president is greeting campaign staff at his national reelection headquarters, located in an otherwise unremarkable Rosslyn office tower, as voters nationwide continue to head to the polls.
The presidential motorcade arrived shortly 12:15 p.m. A few dozen Trump supporters were holding signs and flags across from the headquarters for the presidents arrival. Police are blocking off several local street for the visit.

UPDATE: The president has arrived in Rosslyn. The official White House schedule suggests his visit will likely last just under an hour.

Thu Feb 13, 2020: Trump Made a Surprise Visit to Arlington Today

President Trump Made a Surprise Visit to Arlington Today
ARLnow.com Today at 3:25pm
President Trump made a surprise visit to his reelection campaigns office in Rosslyn around lunchtime today.
The president was accompanied by his son-in-law and advisor Jared Kushner, and campaign manager Brad Parscale. For about an hour he took meetings and greeted campaign staff, congratulating them on a more than $60 million fundraising haul in January.
Arlington County Police assisted with the motorcade from the White House to the campaign office.
Trump posed for a photo with staffers, who work out of whats been described as a Republican National Committee annex in a glass-skinned tower overlooking the Potomac River. The address is not publicly available.

Trump says he has neither a victory or concession speech ready, and repeats, I think were going to have a great night, but adds, in politics you never know. Says he already sees signs of a big red wave of GOP voters waiting to cast their ballots.
